Advanced tools
node-heroku-bouncer is an easy-to-use module for adding Heroku OAuth authentication to express apps.
$ npm install heroku-bouncer --save
node-heroku-bouncer assumes you've already added the express cookieParser and cookieSession middlewares to your app. To set it up, pass it your OAuth client ID and secret and another secret used to encrypt your user's OAuth session data.
Use the bouncer.middleware
object to set up middleware that will ensure that
your users are logged in (and redirect otherwise), and the bouncer.routes
object to add the OAuth-specific routes to your app:
var express = require('express');
var app = express();
app.use(express.cookieParser('your cookie secret'));
app.use(express.cookieSession({
secret: 'your session secret',
cookie: {
path : '/'
signed : true,
httpOnly: true,
maxAge : null
}
});
var bouncer = require('heroku-bouncer')({
herokuOAuthID : 'client-id',
herokuOAuthSecret : 'client-secret',
herokuBouncerSecret: 'bouncer-secret'
});
app.use(bouncer.middleware);
app.use(bouncer.router);
app.get('/', function(req, res) {
res.end('you must be logged in!');
});
To log a user out, send them to /auth/heroku/logout
.
$ npm test
